Planning committee
Decided by York Planning Committee on 7 May 2026.
Approved unanimously
As officers recommended.
- Officers advised approval because the affordable homes and site benefits outweighed the less-than-substantial harm to the City Walls.
- Three representations raised concerns about trees, neighbouring properties, parking, garages and the absence of commercial space.
- Members voted unanimously to approve the application with updated conditions.
